> IP addr is not a person
And most IPV4 addresses are vague and only give a coarse location of where you are, and they're typically shared among many others so an IP is not a guaranteed signal that it was 'you' who pirated stuff.

That's not true, you can request/compel Frontier to tell you what specific customer that IP was assigned to at a given time.

Most residential ISPs in the states have 1 ipv4 (and possibly ipv6) assigned per customer and don't CGNAT, from my brief research Frontier doesn't seem to use CGNAT at least for residential internet.
If it took the visit to realize that you're not very anonymous on the internet, you owe them for the lesson.
Provided they keep such logs (which they probably shouldn't, unless required by law).
